XSS Filter Evasion Cheat Sheet

Last revision (mm/dd/yy): 06/1/2016 This cheat sheet is for people who already understand the basics of XSS attacks but want a deep understanding of the nuances regarding filter evasion. Please note that most of these cross site scripting vectors have been tested in the browsers listed at the bottom of the scripts. XSS Locator Inject this string, and in most cases where a script is vulnerable with no special XSS vector requirements the word "XSS" will pop up. Use this URL encoding calculator to encode the entire string. ';alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))//';alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))//"; alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))//";alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))//-- ></SCRIPT>">'><SCRIPT>alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))</SCRIPT> XSS Locator (short) No Filter Evasion This is a normal XSS JavaScript injection, and most likely to get caught but I suggest trying it first (the quotes are not required in any modern browser so they are omitted here): Filter bypass based polyglot <!

Hack3rCon^3 just wrapped up, and I’ve officially been shamed into finally publishing the details of the research. Many of the faithful PDC readers will know most of these details, as some of them were included as pieces to posts on other topics, but I will try to provide a little something new.

A Guide to Recommender SystemsWe're running a special series on recommendation technologies and in this post we look at the different approaches - including a look at how Amazon and Google use recommendations. The Wikipedia entry defines "recommender systems" as "a specific type of information filtering (IF) technique that attempts to present information items (movies, music, books, news, images, web pages, etc.) that are likely of interest to the user."

We think there's also a personalization approach, which Google in particular is focused on. We explore some of these concepts below.
